Software Engineer • Current Employee

Pros: After working for Uber for a couple of months now, I see a staggering difference between what Uber is perceived as and what it actually is. Filled with young, smart folks who want to see this amazing product be accessible to more and more people, it feels like folks are on a mission.

Cons: Sometimes there is a sense of being in a bubble, with folks working late nights and not having a good work-life balance, creating a competitive environment that can be a bit overwhelming.
